'Easter eggs' in certain stories

[Willem Hajenius]

Hello fellow Duck fans,

While re-reading my collection of Donald Duck Extra's, I stumbled upon
some very nice easter eggs in certain stories! I was wondering whether
anyone else has noted them?


Issue 11/97, D96089, page 24, frame 2:
in U$'s scrapbook is written 'donrosa at iglou.com' Very nice gag, Don!


Issue  4/98, D96203, page 18, frame 2:
"Man, wat zijn we een geweldig TEAM! We gaan naar kreli-olie zoeken op Altair 4!
Nebuliet zoeken in de kristalbergen op Kenodon! Zoiets heb je nog NOOIT meegemaakt!"

(translation: "Man, are we a great TEAM! We'll search for kreli-oil on Altair 4!
Search for Nebulite in the crystal mountains on Kenodon! You've NEVER seen anything like that!"

For some reason, 'Kenodon' rings a bell! :-) Does Don Rosa's original English text
also use that word, or was it changed by the Dutch translator/publisher?


Issue 10/98, D96116, page 1, frame 6:
around the bits and pieces lying on the floor in Gyro's workshop is a miniature of
a time travel machine I've seen before; don't know which story though.


Issue 13/98, D95081, page 10, frame 7: "...dus ik zeg tegen Willem van Hoorn, de ijsco-
koning, ik zeg, Willem ouwe jongen, DOE MIJ MAAR VANILLE! En bla bla bla..."

(translation: "so I say to Willem van Hoorn, the icecream king, I say, Willem old boy,
FETCH ME A VANILLA! And blah, blah, blah..."

Willem van Hoorn is (obviously) a 'dutchification' of William van Horn, the artist
of that story; and the reason he's an icecream king is that in Dutch, an 'ijshoorn'
is a 'snow-cone'.

Perhaps it would be nice to add these easter eggs to the appropriate INDUCKS-file?

Best wishes,
